Black Cat looks less "super-skank" and more "OMG SPIDEY IM YOUR BIGGEST FAN LETS STEAL ALIENS TOGETHER!"
thee great one

I watched the first 4 episodes.
It's a decent show.
The problem is, that I feel I seen it all before.
How many times must I watch Conners turn into The Lizard and Spider-Man chase him?
I'll keep watching to see if it ever really goes anywhere.

I'll feel that way if they genuinely don't take it anywhere new(Gwen finally being "the one", for example). In the meantime, I can give them a few episodes to set things up for a new generation.

Perhaps, but the question is has any of this ever been done well in animated form?

I have no idea what that means, but the 90's Spider-man sucks.

That series has not aged well and has a number of problems:
1. No punching
2. Really bad animation after season 1 (23% new footage.)
3. Lame characterization (Ock as Kingpin's minion)
4. Overexposed villains (at this point I am glad there is no kingpin in this new toon)
5. Some bad voice acting (every time MJ speaks, Spidey screaming MJ's name at random parts.)
6. Lame censored versions of characters who were never interesting in the first place (Carnage and Morbius, who got 5 episodes in a row)
7. Everyone having lasers for no reason.
SS is the first cartoon to do these stories well, so I don't have a problem with it.

The Sins of the Father's storyline that played throughout the entire last season I felt was well done.
But that's my opinion, and only my opinion.
So I enjoyed the show.
I really don't care what lists you put up either.
Because it's my opinion.
And your opinion is you hated it.
That's fine. I don't mind that.

Very well, but I can say i have no problem with SS telling some the same story lines as other spidey toons, because I think SS is doing a better job then those other toons. Plus of course this toon is going to be hitting some familar notes, its trying to introduce the Spidey mythos to new generation who don't know it.

Yeah, 90's Spidey does not hold up well. And everyone had lasers because you couldn't show guns on a Saturday morning cartoon.

BTAS had guns.
Still good cartoons have an in plot explaination on why everyone has lasers, they don't just throw that out there with no real explaination.

BTAS wasn't on Saturday Mornings, it was on weekday afternoons.

It was at first, but was soon moved to primetime once word got around about how good it was and its appeal to both kid and mature audiences. They continued to air reruns on Saturday morning Fox, guns and all.
But don't get me wrong, I loved the 90s Spidey to death as a kid and it still holds up in my occasional re-watchings over the years. I never even noticed the no-punching thing, and gun-lasers or not, they almost always had damn good stories and story-arcs.

It was never on Saturday mornings on the East Coast. It didn't air Saturdays until it became The New Adventures of Batman and Superman.
But I digress, this is not the topic of the thread.
